Abstract
With the Revolution of Dignity (2014), a large representation of the population of Ukraine came out in favour of a geopolitical placement in the EU and NATO. In parallel, Russia intervened in Crimea and the Donbas. Ukrainian society, in addition to dealing with the consequences of a conflict and a delicate geopolitical situation, is searching for its own internal socio-political equilibrium, as the Poroshenko-Zelens'kyj alternation demonstrates. The present collection of studies, involving Italian scholars, focuses on the historical, legal, linguistic, cultural and religious aspects that accompany this adjustment.
